LAMP

Application filed October 25, 1928. Serial N0. 315,037.

.-i.-i to be understood that changes, variations and modifications may be resorted to without departing from the scope of the appended claims.

In describing the invention in detail, refer- '2 ence is had to the accompanying drawings which form a part of this specification and wherein like characters of references indicate corresponding parts in the several views,

, in which Figure 1 is a view in elevation.

Figure 2 is a fragmentary view in elevalion.

Figure 3 is a view in elevation of a modified form of my invention.

Figure a is a top plan view on line 4-4 of r the socket shown in Fig. 2 with the globe and light removed.

Referring to the drawing in detail designates the base of the light support having a series of apertures 11 for the reception of screws 12 in securing the light to the deck of the vessel. Base 10 is cup shaped and is threaded at 13 to receive the threaded end of the tubular member 14- of the light stand.

The tubular member 14 has formed at its. upper end a cup shaped member 15 which is threaded at 16 for the reception of a marine lens 17. Marine lens 17 has a lip 18 formed at the point just above the threaded portion of the lens and is adapted to rest upon the rim of the cup shaped member. In the central portion of the member 15 is raised portion 19 which is threaded on the inner side to receive the light socket 20. Conductor 21 is connected to the light socket by any suitable means such as screw 22. Light socket 20 is constructed so that the light bulb 23 may be quickly inserted and removed.

Referrin to Figure 3 the base is so con structed that it may he slipped over the end of a flag stafi or the like. Loop or ring 24 is provided to which the flag may be attached.

What I claim is:

1. A. lamp structure 7 consisting of a removable base, a tubular support having a cup-shaped upper end, means for supporting a lamp socket in the central portion of said cup section, means for connecting a flag to the tubular support and means for attaching said tubular'support to a flag staff.

9.. A lamp structure comprising a removable base and a tubular shaft having a flared upper end forming a cup shaped member adapted to receive a lens, said flared end having a tubular stud formed therein to sup- 7 port a light socket.

3. In combination with a lamp structure, consistingof a base and a tubular shaft section, said shaft section flared at its upper end to form a cup shaped member having a bead formed around the top thereof, of a marine lens having a lip adapted to rest upon said bead to exclude moisture from the interior of said lamp structure.
